Your Best Shot

Photo courtesy Mark YounggrenFirst place- Gallery name, ?Steam!?
This photo of a steam engine barreling through a tunnel in Cape Horn holds a classic photographic look. The same photo in color would not hold the same impact. Photo by Mark Younggren, username SanchezBend.

Photo courtesy Alan ShuttleworthGallery name, ?Cross Country off Hwy 20?
The change of season is upon us, and photos of snow in the higher elevations are always great. Including a person in such a photo adds that extra element, making the viewer take a little more time looking at the photo. The person cross county skiing off Highway 20 dressed in black is great contrast against the white powder, catching your eye and setting the scene.

Photo courtesy J. DiRuscioGallery name, ?Bobcat Worrior?
Photographs of people can tell a story and this photo of a Native American warrior during the Auburn Big Pow Wow does just that. The intricate detail of the clothing, face paint and the bobcat headdress lends to a solid image. Photo by J DiRuscio, username jpdiruscio
